Hi,
I have been searching to the internet for a while to find a voltage multiplier calculator. I found one, but it needed some info i couldnt provide like Vrms which is something i dont know. The multiplier is made of 8 diodes and 8 capacitors 35 v input and 50 hertz and around 25mA. Can someone please calculate the output? EDIT: 35v was a test to see if the multiplier works also im out of replies for 21 hours EDIT 2: mister resistor i dont want to kill anyone thats why i want the current to be that low i just want to shock
For a sine wave AC input, Vrms = 0.707 x Vpeak.
and around 25mA
What does that mean? You need to specify the load resistance and the capacitor value to do calculation. Post a schematic diagram.
Capacitor is 4nF and it is 25 mA not around also it is square wave not sine and what do you mean by resistance?
The schematic is the same with those at the internet heres the link: https://images.app.goo.gl/vjkfyU6PyFX8jkwh9
If you have 35V at 50Hz then it's 35VAC RMS
The formula is on the link you posted
The load resistance, which is missing from the diagram and is required to make a meaningful calculation.
This is the correct diagram:
I recommend to simply build the circuit and measure the output voltage.
Have fun with the project.
This topic has a lot of similarities with
@marinochungus are you also @projektoras ? Or in the same class?
Yeah he is my friend also we made a mistake its sine wave not square wave
I did but when i do the calclations the calculations are 100v out like 35 v is 300 but the calculations say its 400
Okay so we measured some more things and it is 100 v peak to peak 35 vrms everything is sine wave 50 hertz 4 nF capacitors and i dont wont a resistance because i want to make a homemade low current tazer
For higher voltage, use more multiplier stages, with higher quality, less leaky capacitors and diodes.
I wouldn't want to be in charge of (or involved with) testing & debugging!!!
I know how it works but i want a calculator thats the title too
Is your AC supply voltage isolated from ground, unlike line power? Anything that plugs into the wall, is pretty much a death trap unless you really know what you're doing.
I know how it works but i want a calculator
When I'm in that situation, I often open a spreadsheet and create formulas in it.
Ok last edit i will make i dont really need a sine wave it works with both waves and square and sine
Its low current and voltage its like a shock not for a fence to kill someone
EDit
I'll ask one more time, a little differently... what is the voltage source for the multiplier circuit? Is it electrically isolated from the line? Is it a transformer? What are the capacitor values?
low current and voltage
Can you be more specific? Shoot us some numbers.
I really havent planned the numbers either 16 or 9 volts and current i dont know the current of 1 9v battery i guess
What units? What do you mean i dont know fluently electronic things in english im from greece
Our posts crossed in the forum delay. Units are Volts, Amperes...
Where are you going with this project? At the moment, you have a diagram with no component values. What is the source of 35V that you mentioned. Why 35V? There is a lot you haven't told us...
